NEW PHILADELPHIA -- On an evening when the stars weren't shining for Hiland, the depth of the Hawks prevailed.
Led by the bench brigade of Megan Beachy, Brittany Miller, Lindsey Yoder and Rachel Horn, Hiland held off Bridgeport 55-44 in the Div. IV New Philadelphia District semifinal Thursday.
The win advances the Hawks (22-3) to the district championship game on Saturday against Bishop Rosecrans, a 67-29 winner over Conotton Valley in Thursday's opener. Bridgeport bows out at 23-2.
